I am using accelerometer MMA766 to read values. Used the following commands
root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# i2cdetect -y 1
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f
00: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
10: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
20: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
30: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
40: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 4c -- -- --
50: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# i2cdump -y 1 0x4c b

Why I couldn't read any values?
UPDATE:
I followed the instructions in this link. What I used to connect is
- Connect VCC to the first pin on the front row (near label P1)
- Connect SDA to the second pin on the front row
- Connect SCL to the third pin on the front row
- Connect GND to the fifth pin on the front row
